Halo Wars 2 open beta launches on Xbox One and here is the trailer

Microsoft announced during the E3 2016 press event that it has launched the Halo Wars 2 open beta for the Xbox One version of the upcoming sci-fi RTS sequel.

In addition to the public beta, Microsoft showed a new trailer for the game, which is being developed by The Creative Assembly, the developers behind the Total War franchise. The game will also be released for Windows 10 as well. There's no word yet on a release for Halo Wars 2, just "early 2017", but the beta will end on June 20.

Halo Wars: Definitive Edition is an enhanced version of the original Halo Wars that runs natively on Xbox One and Windows 10. Halo Wars: Definitive Edition includes improved graphics and all of the DLC created for the classic real-time strategy game.

I don't know what that means lol, but if you're asking if they're bad, I only played one game by them which was Alien: Isolation and it was pretty badass. It's a different style of game from an RTS, but they were incredibly faithful to the Alien franchise and have experience in strategy games so I have high hopes for this.

I'll never know why MS shut them down, imagine what AoE4 could've looked like nowadays with how AoE3 looked like a decade ago. They were the best at what they did, now the majority of the developers are in separate studios making largely iOS and Android games.

I know right ? Essemble studios were great at rts games !:3 the graphics the mods, hell even the campaigns. But eh. Microsoft closed the studio when 343 started making halo games..sooo >.> someone really made a Shity decision
